Is there a chart that shows me what power by M2 I need to heat my home?

Unfortunately this is not possible to calculate, but the system is always very easy to install and has a very low running cost. Since we are heating by infrared IRRADIATION, the amount of absorbed energy, and thus the temperature increase, depends on the objects and multiple parameters of the environment studied.
For the calculation of a room, it takes a series of data:
– On one hand, the capacity corresponding to absorption, emission and reflection from objects stay in the study, which depends on the materials they are made and their colours.
– On the other hand, other data as the isolation level of stay, orientation, geographic area in which we find ourselves, etc. All these data allow us to calculate and perfectly sized your home, so that it works, bringing maximum comfort and energy savings.
For this our technical department is at your disposal to study any project free of charge

Why is an ecological system?

The system is environmentally friendly due to four main reasons:
1) Since we need to use a considerably smaller amount of energy than other systems, we determined that, to be less consumption, the amount of energy required to produce at source is lower, thus we are reducing CO2 emissions and other pollutants into the atmosphere gases and source lesser amounts of waste are produced.
2) With no moving parts involving wear and usage with its operation, no waste is generated from defective parts.
3) For its operation neither liquid nor oils or thermal fluids or gases are required. This differs from the heat pumps which may contaminate either by fault or by the end of the life of the appliance.
4) When the service life of very high equipment and most of the device is recyclable, the amount of waste generated by it is very small, so we conclude that this is the greenest heating system that currently exists in the market.

Do I have to expand the electric power of my house to install heating SS HEAT?

Usually not. If the system is placed to replace a previously installed one, and this other system is electric, then, the power requirements may even go down. If, however, the contracted capacity is small, either because no other heating system are available or because the heating system it is replacing is non-electric, you may have to expand the contracted power. However, not always the total plate is switch on, because they will independently thermostats in each space

Can infrared heat be dangerous to health?

Not only is not harmful, it is necessary for life. If it were not for the infrared emission from the sun, life on Earth would not be possible. In addition to the healthy effect on our body that infrared ray has, our plates possess other characteristics that make them very healthy. For example, we eliminate bacteria and odours from our house. The World Health Organization states that for infrared rays to have a positive effect on the organism they must have frequency of distant waves and be between 3 and 14 microns. Our plates radiate heat between 4 and 14 microns.

What maintenance is needed?

None, because it has no moving parts and therefore does not generate any mechanical wear.

If the plate is dirty, how do I clean it?

The plate should not become dirty, unless it is in direct contact with dirty substance. This is due to the neutral ion effect, since, when they join with the particles in suspension, they create an inert substance that prevents them from sticking to the surface. If by any chance it is needed to be cleaned this is to be performed using a damp cloth.

What advantages does SS HEAT have in respect to heating by air conditioning with heat pumps?

Heat pumps are systems that have high performance, but SS HEAT which is heated by direct emission of heat, consumes less electricity because it does not heat air and does not need to generate airflow to distribute heat throughout the room.
Furthermore, SS HEAT offers greater comfort, providing a uniform temperature distribution in the room, without overheating and without air currents, hence removing moisture from it. The heat pump systems generates much air inside the room, causing thermal differences that may exceed 10 ° C. On days with an outside temperature below 5 ° C, the heat pump system will more often than not malfunction. Warm air is less dense accumulates on the roof causing the feeling of being cramped, hot headed or cold feet. The heat pump systems dry the atmosphere too much, resulting in the placement of humidifiers being necessary in many cases to increase the level comfort, with the cost increase and energy consumption of this increase.

SS Heat is considerably cheaper because the installation of this is very simple, and in most cases meaning no modifications needs to be done, which makes installation very fast. Also it uses very limited space as it is attached to the ceiling, and so no need for boilers, compressors, pipes, enabled it to win space in the rooms M2 for habitable housing.

How long does it take to install the heating SS HEAT?

The average installation time for a normal house (about 100 m2) is one day for the entire house, including bathrooms and kitchen. And does not require additional plumbing and painting works. In short, in most cases, a complete installation of the home or office is always faster than any other system.

If the plate is heated by Joule effect, where is the energy efficiency?

As we advance in the previous answer, we need to heat the plate at a certain temperature so that there is a satisfactory infrared heat exchange between her and the bodies that are in your range. The electrical energy consumed is for heating the plate, not for heat the air around it, so, being a direct exchange between the plate and the bodies that are in your environment, the amount of energy required for this is considerably less than that required to achieve the same goal via convection. As a practical example, consider the warming by the sun. If this would be carried out via convection, assuming that there was some kind of gas or medium between the Sun and Earth, it would have to be hot all the space between it and we, whereby a number of higher energy than it does through IRRADIATION would be needed.

Do heat SS plates can be connected to chrono-thermostat or home automation systems?

The plates allow its automatic and manual control.
Automatic control is done through home automation system or by connecting a relay with integrated sensor housing or independently connected to one or more programmable chrono-thermostats that are put in circuit boards to connect the plates as needed and to shut off automatically when a certain temperature is reached.
The SS HEAT systems enable connection to most lap-market thermostats. However SS HEAT also offers a wide range of wired and wireless thermostats. Our technicians and dealers will advise on the most appropriate in each case.
The chrono-thermostats are placed on the wall inside the irradiation area of the plates and such that are easily accessible to the user.
SS HEAT recommends installing lap Thermostats in each heated area that can be programmed temperatures are desired at different times of the day or night and can be programmed for each day of the week if desired.

It is possible to use SS plates Heat in rooms having already installed other heating systems?

The plates SS HEAT can be used instead of or in addition to any other heating system because they are more efficient and healthier.
Our customers are installing on many occasions as reinforcement to other systems less efficient heating used as transmitter air heat so they are very sensitive to drafts, or window and door openings.

What are the differences between the various systems of direct heat emission?

The direct irradiation system using infrared heat allows the heat to be transferred without need for something that serves as a transmitter of heat, as the effect of having the sun.
These systems do not heat the air, but is realized through waves, which reach people and objects directly, which raise its temperature to warm the atmosphere.
There are big differences between different systems infrared emission, mainly 3 types of infrared waves are used:
Short: High frequency, more light, less heat. This system is less efficient and heats much to nearby objects and not heats just the most distant objects
Media: Media frequency, low light and medium heat. Average efficiency and midrange
Long (SS HEAT): Low frequency, without light and high heat. This system more efficient, it is distributed more evenly and reaches further distance.
The fact that the low-frequency waves reach farther and more evenly spread, consuming less energy, is a law in addition to the wave propagation, can be seen in many cases very common in our daily lives working under similar laws emission by waves: For example the sound (at the same intensity always reaches farther bass sounds long wave shortwave acute), radio (medium wave listening further than the FM) in the mobile phone (with the new generation of phones that work more often, more antennas are needed to get the same coverage)
In addition much of the SS HEAT systems incorporate treatments in their heat emitters getting maximum efficiency and fringe benefits as removing much of odour and bacteria.
